Rescued from his beloved Macintosh, The Salmon of Doubt provides us with the opportunity to linger and frolic one last time in the uniquely entertaining and richly informative mind of Douglas Adams. For the millions of readers who expressed their grief and shock at his untimely death, this is a treasure; his final book and our last chance to see new work from an acknowledged comic genius.
Douglas Adams was a gifted futurist, humorist, and self-effacing humanoid. His hard drive and clippings yield some gems here in a loving posthumous read of bits, bytes, lectures, articles, and nonsequiturs. The much adored author of THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY is given his final hurrah by close friends Stephen Fry, Christopher Cerf, and others. This mirthful catalog of verbiage culled from his many computer hard drives and notes addresses technology, the environment, the Beatles, life as a modern human, and much more. Fans of THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE and DIRK GENTLY'S HOLISTIC DETECTIVE AGENCY will especially enjoy this offering and its warm and witty read. D.J.B. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine
